Lizzie McGuire

I am not saying that this is the best show on Disney, because it isn't. But along with Phineas and Ferb and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody it is one of the better ones, and much better than Hannah Montana and Cory in the House, which are full of the things that the negative commentators criticise this show for(ie. bad acting, bad writing and stereotyping).

Yes some of the characters are clichéd and some of the situations predictable, but we also have some funny writing and some story lines that work really nicely. The show is not that bad to look at, and I like the music, it is pretty funky. And the acting is not that bad, Hilary Duff is not the best actress ever but she is likable, and that is the same with her co-stars. Overall, you mayn't like this show at first, but I honestly don't think it is that bad. I have seen better shows but there are much worse out there as well. 8/10 Bethany Cox

This show is cute and innocent. It deals with simple problems that everyday middle schoolers go through. It is usually easy to follow and fun. Lizzie and her friends deal with not complicated, harsh issues but ones that teens still face such as boyfriends, peer troubles, a first job, "my crazy family", stuff like that. I also like it because it's appropriate for anyone while still appealing (at least a little, admit it, it IS addicting!!!) to the older genre. Also, Hilary Duff does a good job playing her part as Lizzie, and her T.V. family seems so real to me, like they really seem like they work together as a "real" family. This is a cute show that any age can and will enjoy.

"The Lizzie McGuire" TV series is a classic coming-of-age story that has captured the hearts of audiences since its debut in 2001. The show follows the ups and downs of Lizzie (played by Hilary Duff), a middle school student navigating the challenges of adolescence with the help of her quirky friends and family.

One of the strengths of the series is its relatability. Lizzie's struggles with self-confidence, peer pressure, and family dynamics are familiar to anyone who has gone through the awkward teenage years. The show's humor, which is both silly and smart, adds to its overall appeal and makes it a hit with viewers of all ages.

Another highlight of the series is its cast of characters. Lizzie's best friends, Gordo and Miranda, are well-developed and likable, and their interactions with Lizzie provide some of the show's most memorable moments. Lizzie's parents, played by Robert Carradine and Hallie Todd, also add depth and humor to the series with their quirky personalities and loving relationship.

Overall, "The Lizzie McGuire" series is a classic that has stood the test of time. Its themes of friendship, self-discovery, and family are timeless, and its humor and relatability make it a must-watch for anyone who has ever been a teenager. Whether you're looking to revisit your own middle school years or introduce a new generation to the show, "The Lizzie McGuire" series is a must-see.

It's not my VERY favorite show on TV (CSI), but its second, tied with Friends and Boy Meets World. I like it because the characters cover all the different personalities of adolescents. Lizzie is the average girl-next-door sort, who just wants to fit in. Miranda is a cool girl who always has to stand up for her best friend.

Gordo, who is like me, BTW, is the "Please stop trying to be popular" brain/film-maker. Ethan- heartthrob who is smart in certain areas. AKA, he has street cred. Kate- a popular leader. But she CAN be nice. Claire- popular, but not Queen B. Can be jealous at times. Larry- smart, considered geeky, but he's actually a treasure. Matt is somewhat annoying, but funny. He is always coming up with ideas, therefore, its confirmed he's an evil genius sort of guy. Lanny is the kid who never talks, but its obvious he cares for his friends and always knows whats going to happen. Melina- a girl who gets her potential boyfriend in trouble. The perfect partner in crime :) The parents are somewhat unrealistic. But not really. Lizzie's mom acts like my friend's mom. But I have never met a dad that acts like Sam McGuire. Overall rating: 10/10. :) *~Whit AKA Bibs~* P.S. I think the show is somewhat like "As Told By Ginger" If you like this show, you might want to check that out.

Nice one line summary huh? Well...it might be weird, but I'm 22, and I like this show a lot. The other comments talk about how Lizzie is a brat and a snob, etc, but I think everyone is missing the point. The shows theme might be aimed at the wrong age group, but who knows...maybe I'm just weird. I think it's a really nice show, and if can entertain someone like me, and of my age, then it has to be halfway decent. It's got good values and a storyline that usually exposes some sort of really nice truth about life in general, and that works well with this show and format. The acting is pretty good, and it's funny, and almost all of the jokes work. 8/10
